    Hyperlinks with "#" in name will not open

    I'm trying to create hyperlinks to files that have number signs in their names. However, they will not open. Is there anyway around this? I cannot change the name of the files since they are on a network and used by many people.

    Try replacing the literal pound sign #
    with CHAR(35) see if that works.
